Shell scripts are programs used to automate tasks within a Unix shell environment.

bash

Please submit only sites relevant to using the BASH shell. Shell scripting materials should be submitted to Computers: Software: Operating Systems: Unix: Shell: Scripting. Generic shell pages may be submitted to Computers: Software: Operating Systems: Unix: Shell.
The Bourne Again SHell (bash) is an interactive, programmable command interpreter for the Unix and GNU-Linux operating systems. Bash was created and is maintained through the GNU Project. Bash is most common on GNU-Linux systems, though it may be found on any Unix-like OS.

Please submit only sites relevant to using the C shell. Shell scripting materials should be submitted to Computers: Software: Operating Systems: Unix: Shell: Scripting. Generic shell pages may be submitted to Computers: Software: Operating Systems: Unix: Shell.

The C Shell (csh) is an interactive, programmable command interpreter for the Unix and GNU-Linux operating systems written by Bill Joy, then of UC Berkley. Csh is designed for programmers using the C language, using a similar syntax for its own programming.
